MBCC Sunday session, 'No riff raff'. Keg. Very hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Light and semi dry palate, reasonable fine carbonation. Smooth and sweet pale malts. Modest citric and piney hop. Just a pinch of hop spice. Some citric peel on the finish. Very light and polite, perhaps a little too much so.

Pours a hazy, orange-yellow, with minimal head. Aroma has basement dankness, with citrus and tropical fruits abounding. Flavor is citrus and tropical fruit, with a light underlying sweetness and a bitter, pine/spruce hop finish. Tasty.
